Lucy I'm sorry that you had to deal with that. That was highly inappropriate of her to say ANYTHING. Obviously, we know that we have issues with our weight or we wouldn't have found IP.

canadjineh I love your posts!! They always are what I want to hear or in some cases what I need to hear. My girls aren't what they were when I was in my early twenties but I feel like with the weight loss they are perking up (this may totally be in my head though) . Everyone needs to find what is right for them as we are all different and I feel like 132 what be good for me but I still intend to feel it out when I get down there.

evemomma I feel like I'm going to go through the same struggles as you when I get closer to goal as I'm already hearing some of those opinions come out now. I just want to scream at these people and tell them to keep those opinions to themselves. I just usually laugh it off and say "I'm almost there" or "I'm getting there"

lisaThanks for the suggestions. Figuring out what I want my goal weight to be has been difficult as I've never really gotten down there in a healthy way. (Diet pills and crash dieting in my early 20s got me down to 135 - My diet literally consisted of a sugar free red bull for lunch and a lean pocket for dinner then I would go run on the levee every day....that was it). I'm ashamed to admit it and I know it was SO unhealthy. I gained that weight back and then some SO fast once it got cooler and I didn't want to run in that weather and then went back to my old eating habits. My body was literally STARVED and I don't feel that way on IP.

I've done the ideal weight calculator and the dukan diet calculator and both of them have me around where I want to be. Dukan diet calculator says 133. Time will tell if this 132 I picked out is maintainable or if I will be adjusting my goal weight again in the upcoming weeks.

hmmm, the dukan calculator has my suggested goal weight at 162. Not too far off from my 155 but I think I still like my goal weight better. I think the 162 would be my top number not to exceed while in maintenance.

Neat - Dukan calculator says my True Weight is 168.

I had to do it twice because the first time I did it--it said I am already at my true weight and don't need dukan coaching.

So the second time I entered my starting IP weight...and I wonder if it just gives you a # near the target weight you enter for yourself? I ENTERED 168.

Though it may take into consideration the questions you answer about your FRAME SIZE, THE MOST YOU HAVE EVER WEIGHED, IF YOUR FAMILY HAS A TENDANCY TO PUT ON WEIGHT,THE LEAST YOU HAVE EVER WEIGHED ETC

Happy Friday all y'all!

Tried Dukan as you all have mentioned, it says 198 for me?

My Nashua order came today! So happy to have some variety. Today is day 5 and I was going off old packets I had from before.

I have begun calling the packets "Soylent Green" as a joke

evemomma, lisa, and kissi, thanks for your kinds words and sharing my indignance. Even though it sucks to regain and relose, it's better than doing nothing about it! I'll be so much more prepared this time for maintaining.

Lucy- that is thoughtless comment you received. Good for you for coming here to read with a nice cup of tea.

Eve, Briael - so many wonderful things you are noticing as the pounds have left you. Love how you have noticed the change in your teeth, Eve - I figured the money I saved on fast food has paid for IP.

I like the comment about opinions are like button holes and everybody has one. I think you have to decide what is a comfortable weight for you and the practice maintaining it for a while. Somebody I work closely with told me to be careful I didn't lose to much more, to not get an eating disorder. I said that one could argue I had disordered eating before IP.

Hmm...I'm 5'9", but everyone thinks that's inaccurate & that I'm taller...perhaps due to my spectacular posture & penchant for high heels

I have good posture too, which only makes me look taller!! I was trying to see if I could find someone who is similar in height and weight to see what changes they're noticing.
